Recent Events
In June 2016, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Incipio, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Incipio”), and Powder Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Incipio (“Acquisition Sub”), pursuant to which, and on the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, among other things, Acquisition Sub commenced a tender offer to acquire all of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company, at a purchase price of
$5.75
per share, net to the holder thereof in cash, subject to reduction for any applicable withholding taxes, without interest, which was subsequently amended in July 2016 to increase the purchase price to
$6.10
per share. For additional information regarding the potential acquisition, please refer to Note 16 - Subsequent Events.
(2) Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of
June 30, 2016
and
December 31, 2015
, condensed consolidated statements of operations for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2016
and
2015
, condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2016
and
2015
, and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2016
and
2015
are unaudited. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments (all of which are considered of normal recurring nature) considered necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of
June 30, 2016
and
2015
, results of operations for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2016
and
2015
, and cash flows for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2016
and
2015
. The results of operations for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2016
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
December 31, 2016
. Historically, the Company has experienced greater net sales in the second half of the year than those in the first half due to a concentration of shopping during the fall and holiday seasons. The Company anticipates that this seasonal impact on net sales is likely to continue. Accordingly, the Company’s results of operations for any particular quarter are not indicative of the results the Company expects for the full year.
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 4, 2016. The
December 31, 2015
condensed consolidated balance sheet included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures including notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.
Prior period amounts have been reclassified to correct for immaterial error corrections and conform with current presentation for certain reclassifications of certain gaming licenses, marketing development fees, and slotting fees between SG&A and costs of goods sold. These reclassifications in total reduced gross profit and operating expenses by
$313,000
and
$372,000
for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2015
, respectively, and did not result in any adjustment to operating loss, net income, or earnings per share.
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company entered into a joint venture in Mexico on September 19, 2011. The Company had the majority ownership and voting rights and controls the day-to-day operations of the entity. Accordingly, the Company consolidated the
SKULLCANDY, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(CONTINUED)
(unaudited)
results of the joint venture operations in its consolidated financial statements. The noncontrolling interests, which reflect the portion of the earnings (losses) of operations which were applicable to the other noncontrolling partner, have been classified as non-controlling interests in the accompanying financial statements for the 2015 periods. On December 31, 2015, the Company acquired the minority interest in its Mexico joint venture to gain full control of the efforts in this market and now operates a wholly-owned subsidiary in this market. As the Company retained its controlling financial interest in the subsidiary, this transaction was accounted for as an equity transaction. The carrying amount of the noncontrolling interest was reduced to
zero
to reflect the purchase, and the difference between the price paid by the Company and the adjustment to the carrying value of the noncontrolling interest was recorded as an adjustment to equity attributable to the parent. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. This ASU requires entities to measure equity investments, except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee, at fair value and recognize any changes in fair value in net income unless the investments qualify for the new practicability exception. The guidance will be effective prospectively for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the new guidance and does not expect it will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory ("ASU 2015-11"). Upon adoption by an entity, ASU 2015-11 will simplify the subsequent measurement of inventory by replacing the current lower of cost or market test with a lower of cost and net realizable value test. The new guidance applies only to inventories for which cost is determined by methods other than last-in-first-out (LIFO) and the retail inventory method. For inventory within the scope of ASU 2015-11, entities will be required to compare the cost of inventory to only one measure, its net realizable value, and not the three measures required by current guidance ("market," "subject to a floor," and a "ceiling"). When evidence exists that the net realizable value of inventory is less than its cost (due to damage, physical deterioration, obsolescence, changes in price levels or other causes), entities will recognize the difference as a loss in earnings in the period in which it occurs. ASU 2015-11 is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within the year of adoption. Early adoption is permitted. The Company expects to adopt the provisions of ASU 2015-11 at the beginning of fiscal 2017. The Company does not believe the adoption of ASU 2015-11 will have a material impact on its consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows, and is still evaluating the impact that this standard will have on the consolidated financial statements.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (“ASU 2014-15”). ASU 2014-15 is intended to define management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an organization’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. The amendments in this ASU are effective for reporting periods ending after December 15, 2016 and for interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-15 will have on its financial statements.
In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes ("ASU 2015-17"). Current GAAP requires the deferred taxes for each tax jurisdiction (or tax-paying component of a jurisdiction) to be presented as a net current asset or liability and net noncurrent asset or liability. This requires a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction analysis based on the classification of the assets and liabilities to which the underlying temporary differences relate based on the period in which the attribute is expected to be realized. Upon adoption of ASU 2015-17, all deferred tax assets and liabilities will be classified as noncurrent on an entity's balance sheet. As a result, each jurisdiction will have only one net noncurrent deferred tax asset or liability. ASU 2015-17 will not change the existing guidance that prohibits the offsetting of deferred tax liabilities of one jurisdiction against the deferred tax assets of another jurisdiction. ASU 2015-17 is effective for public entities in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods in the year of adoption. Early adoption is permitted, and adoption may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company plans to adopt ASU 2015-17 at the beginning of the first quarter of fiscal 2017. ASU 2015-17 will only involve classification of certain deferred tax assets and liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheet and will have no impact on the Company's results of operations or cash flows. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-17 to be material to the Company's consolidated balance sheets.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This update requires an entity to recognize assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms of more than 12 months on the balance sheet. The Company plans to adopt this
SKULLCANDY, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(CONTINUED)
(unaudited)
standard on January 1, 2019 and is still evaluating the impact that this standard will have on the consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This update simplifies the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. The Company plans to adopt this standard on January 1, 2017, and is still evaluating the impact that this standard will have on the consolidated financial statements.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." Under the new standard, revenue is recognized at the time a good or service is transferred to a customer for the amount of consideration received for that specific good or service. It is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods. Entities may use a full retrospective approach or report the cumulative effect as of the date of adoption. The Company will adopt this standard on January 1, 2018. The Company is in the process of determining the approach and is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on the consolidated financial statements.
(3) Investments
In general, the majority of short-term investments have a maturity at the date of purchase within one year. Investments with maturities from
one
to
five
years may be classified, based on the Company’s determination, as short-term based on their highly liquid nature and because they represent the investment of cash that is available for current operations. Short-term investments classified as available-for-sale are recorded at fair value using the specific identification method with the unrealized gains and losses reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until realized. Realized gains and losses from the sale of available-for-sale securities, if any, are determined on a specific identification basis and are recorded in interest (income) expense in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company periodically evaluates unrealized losses in its investment securities for other-than-temporary impairment, using both qualitative and quantitative criteria. In the event a security is deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired, the Company recognizes the credit loss component in interest (income) expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The short-term investments are primarily used to facilitate liquidity and for capital preservation. They consist predominantly of highly liquid investment-grade low risk income earning mutual funds, diversified among industries and individual issuers, that are predominantly U.S. dollar-denominated short-term debt securities.
As of
June 30, 2016
, the Company had the following available-for sale securities (in thousands):

(4) Financial Derivatives and Hedging Activities
SKULLCANDY, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(CONTINUED)
(unaudited)
As part of the Company’s overall risk management practices, the Company enters into financial derivatives primarily designed to either hedge foreign currency risks associated with forecasted international sales transactions – “cash flow hedges”; or to mitigate the impact that changes in currency exchange rates have on balance sheet monetary assets and liabilities – “foreign currency hedges.”
The Company records all derivatives on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether the Company has elected to designate a derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting, and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting.
The effective portion of the gain or loss on derivative instruments designated and qualifying for hedge accounting is deferred in other comprehensive income. Any ineffectiveness in these designated hedging relationships is recognized in current period earnings. Similarly, the changes in fair value for all trades that are not designated for hedge accounting are recognized in current period earnings. Deferred gains or losses from designated hedging relationships are reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted sales transactions effect earnings. The effectiveness of cash flow hedges is assessed at inception and quarterly thereafter. If the instrument were to no longer qualify for hedge accounting or it becomes probable that the originally-forecasted hedged transactions will not occur, then hedge accounting would cease and the related change in fair value of the ineffective portion of the derivative instrument would be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and recognized in earnings. The Company does not offset fair value amounts recognized for derivative instruments.
Credit risk related to derivative transactions reflects the risk that a party to the transaction could fail to meet its obligation under the derivative contracts. The Company’s derivative transactions are subject to master netting arrangements. Therefore, the Company’s exposure to the counterparty’s credit risk is generally limited to the amounts, if any, by which the counterparty’s obligations to the Company exceed the Company’s obligations to the counterparty. The Company’s policy is to enter into contracts only with financial institutions which meet certain minimum credit ratings to help mitigate counterparty credit risk.
As a result of the Company's hedging program, the Company recognized the following in the consolidated statements of operations for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2016
and
2015
, respectively (in thousands):

Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments—Cash Flow Hedges
The Company uses currency forward contracts as cash flow hedges to manage its exposure to fluctuations in the Euro (EUR) to U.S. Dollar (USD) and Great British Pound (GBP) to U.S. Dollar exchange rates on a portion of forecasted international net sales expected to be realized over a maximum of twelve months. Currency forward contracts involve fixing the exchange rate for delivery of a specified amount of foreign currency on a specified date.
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of foreign exchange risk is deferred as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted sales transactions effect earnings. The ineffective portion of the changes in fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are recognized directly to earnings and reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
As of
June 30, 2016
, the Company had the following outstanding derivatives that were used to hedge foreign exchange risks associated with forecasted transactions and designated as hedging instruments (in thousands, except for the number of instruments):

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments—Foreign Currency Derivatives
The Company also enters into forward foreign exchange contracts to mitigate the impact changes in currency exchange rates have on balance sheet monetary assets and liabilities as well as certain other forecasted sales. None of these contracts are designated as hedges for accounting purposes and, accordingly, changes in value of the foreign exchange forward contracts, and in the offsetting underlying on-balance-sheet transactions (for derivatives hedging monetary assets and liabilities), are reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations under the caption “Net Sales" and "Other (income) expense.” As of
June 30, 2016
, the Company had the following outstanding derivatives that were not designated as hedging instruments (in thousands, except for the number of instruments):

The amounts set forth in the table above represent the gross asset or liability. These derivatives are subject to master netting agreements giving effect to rights of offset with each counterparty. Taking into consideration this right of offset, the derivatives are in a net asset position of
$596,000
as of
June 30, 2016
and a net asset position of
$453,000
as of
December 31, 2015
.
(5) Fair Value Measurements
The fair value of the Company’s financial instruments reflects the amounts that the Company estimates to receive in connection with the sale of an asset or paid in connection with the transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation techniques into the following three levels:
Level 1—quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2— observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Some of the Company’s marketable securities primarily utilize broker quotes in a non-active market for valuation of these securities.
Level 3—unobservable inputs.
The majority of the Company’s financial instruments are valued using quoted prices in active markets or based on other observable inputs. The following table sets forth the fair value of the Company’s financial assets that are re-measured on a regular basis:
The fair value of these financial instruments was determined using the following levels of inputs as of
June 30, 2016

There were no financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) and there were no transfers in or out of Level 1, 2, or 3 during the
six months ended June 30, 2016
.
The fair values of the foreign exchange forward contracts are considered to be Level 2. Foreign currency forward contracts are valued using readily available foreign currency forward and interest rate curves. The fair value of each contract is determined by comparing the contract rate to the forward rate and discounting to the present value. Contracts in a gain position are recorded in the consolidated balance sheet under the caption “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” and the value of contracts in a loss position is recorded under the caption “Accrued liabilities.”
The fair value of these financial instruments was determined using the following levels of inputs as of

(10) Net (Loss) Income per Share
Basic net (loss) income per common share is computed by dividing the net (loss) income attributable to Skullcandy, Inc. for the reporting period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the same period. Diluted net (loss) income per share is computed using only the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, as any additional dilutive common shares would be anti-dilutive.
A reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used in the calculation of basic and diluted net (loss) income per common share is as follows:

$10 million
, and expires on August 19, 2018. As a subfeature, the credit facility provided for letters of credit up to

SKULLCANDY, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(CONTINUED)
(unaudited)
The credit facility required the Company to be in compliance with specified affirmative financial covenants, including: (a) total liabilities divided by tangible net worth not greater than
1.0
to 1.0 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter; (b) current ratio not less than
2.00
to 1.00 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter; and (c) EBITDA coverage ratio of not less than
2.0
to 1.0 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter.
The Company’s credit facility also contains certain financial covenants and other restrictions that limit the Company’s ability, among other things, to: (a) make fixed asset purchases greater than
$19 million
in aggregate for fiscal year 2015,
$23 million
for fiscal year 2016, and
$15 million
for any fiscal year thereafter; (b) incur operating lease expenses in any fiscal year greater than
$3 million
in aggregate; and (c) create, incur, assume or permit to exist any indebtedness or liabilities resulting from borrowings, loans or advances, whether secured or unsecured, matured or unmatured, liquidated or unliquidated, joint or several, except (1) the liabilities of the Company and each of its subsidiaries to Wells Fargo, (2) permitted investments, (3) uncapped permitted indebtedness, and (4) capped permitted indebtedness up to
$2 million
in the aggregate outstanding at any one time. Additional covenants and other restrictions exist that limit the Company’s ability, among other things, to: undergo a merger or consolidation, sell certain assets, create liens, guarantee certain obligations of third parties, make certain investments or acquisitions, and declare dividends or make distributions.
At
June 30, 2016
, the Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants in its credit facility.
(12) Segments
The Company manages its business in
two
operating segments which are comprised of Domestic and International. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Makers ("CODM") in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company has determined that the CODM is the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, collectively. The Company's operating segments and reporting segments are the same. The Domestic segment primarily consists of Skullcandy and Astro Gaming product sales to customers in the United States. The Domestic segment also includes the majority of general corporate overhead and related costs which are not allocated for segment reporting purposes, therefore the Company believes that the best metric for segment performance is gross profit. The International segment primarily includes Skullcandy product sales to customers in Europe, Asia, Canada, Mexico, and all other geographic areas outside the United States that are served by the Company’s International operations. The Company primarily operates in the consumer products category in which the Company develops and distributes headphones and other audio products. All intercompany revenues, expenses, payables and receivables are eliminated in consolidation and are not reviewed when evaluating segment performance.
Information related to the Company’s segments is as follows:

(13) Stock-Based Compensation
The Company has an incentive award plan that provides for the grant of incentive and nonqualified options to purchase the Company’s common stock, performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”) and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to selected officers, other key employees and directors. Options are granted at a price not less than the fair market value on the date of grant and generally become exercisable between
one
and
four years
after the date of grant in accordance with an applicable vesting schedule, and generally expire
ten years
from the date of grant. The Company has recorded stock-based compensation expense on its PSUs as the Company believes that it is probable that the performance criteria will be met for the outstanding awards.
RSUs granted to members of the Board of Directors vest annually subject to continued service on the Board.
Summary of Share-Based Compensation
The Company recorded share-based compensation expense related to awards of
$2.3 million
and
$2.1 million
for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2016
and
2015

June 30, 2016
was
$6.5 million
, which is expected to be recognized over the weighted average remaining vesting period of
2.69 years
.

(14) Income Taxes
In order to determine the quarterly provision for income taxes, the Company uses an estimated annual effective tax rate, which is based on expected annual income and statutory tax rates in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates. To the extent that application of the estimated annual effective tax rate is not representative of the quarterly portion of actual tax expense expected to be recorded for the year, the Company determines the quarterly provision for income taxes based on actual year-to-date income (loss). Certain significant or unusual items are separately recognized in the quarter during which they occur and can be a source of variability in the effective tax rates from quarter to quarter.
Income tax benefit for the
three months ended June 30, 2016
and
2015
was
$675,000
and
$19,000
, respectively, or approximately
30.0%
and
(1.7)%
of pre-tax loss. The increase in the Company’s effective tax rate for the
three months ended June 30, 2016
reflects a reduction in taxable income in low tax rate jurisdictions and an increase in high tax rate jurisdictions. The Company's effective tax rate for the
three months ended June 30, 2016
differs from the United States Federal Statutory rate of
35%
, due to a few discrete items and income derived from jurisdictions with different tax rates than the U.S.
Income tax benefit for the
six months ended June 30, 2016
and
2015
was
$2,712,000
and
$813,000
, respectively, or approximately
29.5%
and
23.3%
of pre-tax loss. The increase in the Company’s effective tax rate for the
six months ended June 30, 2016
reflects a reduction in taxable income in low tax rate jurisdictions and an increase in high tax rate jurisdictions. The Company's effective tax rate for the
six months ended June 30, 2016
differs from the United States Federal Statutory rate of
35%
, due to equity shortfalls in the United States and income derived from jurisdictions with different tax rates than the U.S.
The Company is subject to income taxes in the United States and various foreign jurisdictions and to continual examination by tax authorities. Significant judgment is required in evaluating the Company’s uncertain tax positions and determining its provision for income taxes. As of
June 30, 2016
and
December 31, 2015
, the Company had uncertain tax liabilities of
$398,000
and
$384,000
, respectively. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax

(unaudited)
positions as a component of income tax expense. The Company did not incur any material interest or penalties related to income taxes in any of the periods presented. The Company does not anticipate any significant events or circumstances that would cause a material change to these uncertainties during the ensuing year.
The Company files U.S., state and foreign income tax returns in jurisdictions with various statutes of limitations. The Company’s consolidated federal tax return and any significant state or foreign tax returns are not currently under examination.
(15) Commitments and Contingencies
On November 5, 2015, Peter Kravitz, as Liquidating Trustee of the RSH Liquidating Trust, filed a complaint against the Company in the U.S. States Bankruptcy Court for the District Court of Delaware alleging payments received by the Company were preferential payments and seeking the return of approximately
$4.0 million
in payments. The Company operated under a consignment relationship with the former Radio Shack entity. Therefore, the Company believes the payments received are not considered preferential and intends to vigorously defend this action.
On February 12, 2016, an alleged shareholder filed a putative securities class action complaint against the Company and certain Company officers and directors in the United States District Court for the District of Utah, captioned Davis v. Skullcandy, Inc., et al., No. 2:16-cv-00121-RJS. The complaint purports to be brought on behalf of shareholders who purchased common stock between August 7, 2015 and January 11, 2016. It asserts that the Company and certain officers and directors violated sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by making allegedly false or misleading statements concerning positioning and expectations for future growth. The complaint seeks damages in an unspecified amount and equitable relief against the defendants. On March 28, 2016, an alleged shareholder filed a substantially similar putative securities class action complaint in the United States District Court for the District of Utah, captioned Oswald v. Skullcandy, Inc., et al., No. 2:16-cv-00246-CW. The Oswald Complaint purports to be brought on behalf of shareholders who purchased common stock between May 5, 2015 and January 11, 2016. The court has consolidated the
two
lawsuits.
On May 2, 2016, an alleged shareholder filed a derivative lawsuit in the Third Judicial District Court Summit County, Utah: Bessey v. Darling, et al., No. 160500199. The lawsuit is purportedly brought on behalf of the Company against Hoby Darling, Jason Hodell, Richard Alden, Doug Collier, Greg Warnock, Jeff Kearl, Scott Olivet, Heidi O’Neill, and Jay Brown. The lawsuit alleges claims for breach of fiduciary duty, waste of corporate assets, and unjust enrichment. In addition to damages sustained by the Company, restitution, and disgorgement of profits, the complaint seeks equitable relief restricting the proceeds of the defendants’ trading activities or other assets and select corporate governance reforms.
Following the announcement of the Offer and proposed Merger,
two
alleged shareholders filed putative securities class action complaints against the Company and certain of its officers and directors in the United States District Court for the District of Utah: Paprakis v. Skullcandy, Inc., et al., No. 2:16-cv-00810-BCW (filed July 19, 2016); Bernicke v. Darling, et al., No. 2:16-cv-00831-DN (filed July 26, 2016) (together, the “M&A Securities Actions”). The M&A Securities Actions assert that the Company and certain of its officers and directors violated sections 14(e), 14(d)(4), and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, by forcing a sale of the Company to Parent and Purchaser at an unfair price and by providing incomplete and misleading disclosures regarding the Offer and proposed Merger. The Bernicke complaint also alleges that the proposed Merger is the result of preclusive deal protection devices and self-interested decisions made by the Company’s officers and
directors. The M&A Securities Actions seek to enjoin the Offer and any steps taken to consummate the Merger, as well as damages in the event that the Merger is consummated.
The Company is also subject to other various claims, complaints and legal actions in the normal course of business. The Company does not believe it has any currently pending litigation of which the outcome will have a material adverse effect on its operations or financial position.
(16) Subsequent Events
On June 23, 2016, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Original Merger Agreement”) with Incipio, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Incipio”), and Powder Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Incipio (“Acquisition Sub”), which was amended on August 3, 2016, pursuant to Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Amendment” and together with the “Original Merger Agreement, the “Merger Agreement”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and on the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, among other things, Acquisition Sub commenced a tender offer (“Offer”) to acquire all of the outstanding shares (the “Company Shares”) of common stock of the Company, at a purchase price of
$6.10
per Company Share, net to the holder thereof in cash, subject to reduction for any applicable withholding taxes, without interest (the “Offer Price”). The Offer is not subject to any financing condition.
SKULLCANDY, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(CONTINUED)
(unaudited)
Acquisition Sub’s obligation to purchase the Company Shares validly tendered pursuant to the Offer is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, including (i) that the number of Company Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn in accordance with the terms of the Offer, together with the Company Shares then owned by Incipio, Acquisition Sub and their respective Affiliates, represents at least a majority of all then outstanding Company Shares (not including Company Shares tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures unless and until such Company Shares are actually “received” in accordance with the terms of the Offer), (ii) the expiration or termination of any waiting period (and extensions thereof) applicable to the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, (iii) the absence of any law or order by any governmental authority that would make illegal or otherwise restrict or prohibit the Offer, the acquisition of Company Shares by Incipio or Acquisition Sub or the Merger (as defined below), (iv) the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company contained in the Merger Agreement, subject to customary exceptions, (v) the Company’s material compliance with its covenants contained in the Merger Agreement, (vi) there not having been a material adverse effect on the Company following the execution of the Merger Agreement that is continuing, and (vii) other customary conditions. The Merger Agreement provides that, among other things, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, following completion of the Offer, and in accordance with Delaware law, Acquisition Sub will be merged into and with the Company (the “Merger”).
At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holders of any Company Shares, each outstanding Company Share (excluding any Company Shares (i) owned immediately prior to the Effective Time by Incipio, Acquisition Sub or the Company or any wholly owned subsidiary of Incipio, Acquisition Sub or the Company or (ii) held by stockholders who have properly and validly perfected their appraisal rights under Delaware law) will be canceled and extinguished and automatically converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the Offer Price, without interest and less any required withholding taxes. In addition, at the Effective Time, each option to purchase Company Shares that remains outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (each, a “Company Option”) will be accelerated in full and each Company Option will be canceled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, if any, without interest and less any required withholding taxes, equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the excess, if any, of (A) the Offer Price minus (B) the exercise price per share of such Company Option and (ii) the number of Company Shares underlying such Company Option. At the Effective Time, each Company restricted stock unit or performance stock unit that remains outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (each, a “Company RSU Award”) will be accelerated in full (which, in the case of a Company RSU Award that vests in whole or in part on the basis of achievement of performance goals, shall be determined as if performance were at 100% of targeted performance) and each Company RSU Award will be canceled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, if any, without interest and less any required withholding taxes, equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the Offer Price and (ii) the number of Company Shares underlying such Company RSU Award immediately prior to the Effective Time.
The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by the text of the Merger Agreement. The Original Merger Agreement was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K on June 24, 2016, and the Amendment was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K on August 3, 2016.
Following the announcement of the Offer and proposed Merger,
two
alleged shareholders filed putative securities class action complaints against the Company and certain of its officers and directors in the United States District Court for the District of Utah: Paprakis v. Skullcandy, Inc., et al., No. 2:16-cv-00810-BCW (filed July 19, 2016); Bernicke v. Darling, et al., No. 2:16-cv-00831-DN (filed July 26, 2016) (together, the “M&A Securities Actions”). The M&A Securities Actions assert that the Company and certain of its officers and directors violated sections 14(e), 14(d)(4), and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, by forcing a sale of the Company to Incpio and Acquisition Sub at an unfair price and by providing incomplete and misleading disclosures regarding the Offer and proposed Merger. The Bernicke complaint also alleges that the proposed Merger is the result of preclusive deal protection devices and self-interested decisions made by the Company’s officers and directors. The M&A Securities Actions seek to enjoin the Offer and any steps taken to consummate the Merger, as well as damages in the event that the Merger is consummated.
